lululemon athletica

This place is OK. I really haven’t bought anything here. I’ve looked around. I think it is sort of expensive. I mean, last time I looked in Lululemon I ended up buying some pants from Helly Hansen that were cheaper (on sale) and had more technical features than the ones I had seen at Lululemon.
A friend of mine was talking about Lululemon last summer when we went to a bar and he commented that the waitress has a nice pair of Lululemon tights. Then he said he really liked mine too they were «very, very nice».
I said, «TJ Maxx, ten dollars», which apparently was not the right response (maybe I was supposed to blush or something), but it was true and it sums up the way I feel about the store. It’s OK. I would buy something from them, if it had the right features and I couldn’t find it cheaper. The odds of that happing aren’t that high, but I have nothing against the store. The employees seemed nice enough.

The staff here is the nicest I have met in a Lululemon store. I mean just made the experience fun. Now why is this so significant? Because i have shopped in their store in Princeton, NJ and a few in NYC and the staff is just not always so helpful in finding me the pants that fit women who have butts (now you know that the clothes don’t run all that big anyway because the company philosophy of «Love Your Body» only goes up to about a size 10)
I happen to get some items on sale, pants and tops and walked out with a complete wardrobe. I am happy that they have more pants that are colors other than black. Got some unique prints.
I have clothes from them that are 6 – 7 years old and still going strong and I really use them to work out and do yoga in. So yes, they are expensive upfront. But imagine having them and using them over and over and washing them over and over and they still look great and stay in shape and aren’t worn down even after stretching over my ample butt and thighs. Plus, they just look cute to run around town in.
Now, would you rather buy a $ 100 pair of pants that lasts 7 years and still looks good or would you rather buy a $ 25 pair that looks ratty after 3 washes and get pill balls between the legs and wears thin?
Buy good stuff and it lasts. Lululemon clothes are classics (The Chanel of Yogawear).
And because you pay so much, they have the free yoga class there since you now can’t afford the ones you have to pay for.

I don’t shop here for clothes but the mrs. does when we hit up Whistler for a day trip and it’s always a good experience. Staff is super nice and always ready to help and the fitting room staff are very attentive to customers needs.
Yoga mats, pants, top, sports bras, head bands, and all of that fun stuff with a guys section to boot so everyone can be happy.
The chairs are a nice touch so the guys can sit and relax while their significant other tries on clothing.

I love lululemon and this location is no exception.
We visited Lulu in Whistler last weekend and while we didn’t buy anything, we did have a fun time looking and interacting with the friendly staff. They have plenty to choose from including sportsbras, underwear and apparel to yoga mats, bags, headbands and more. This location had a large men’s section and more important, they also had seating for those that need to chill while their partners continue to shop!
Pro tip: they offer free yoga classes on both Saturday and Sunday mornings before the store opens. I didn’t make it this trip, but maybe next time!

My bf and I love lululemon! We were staying at the village for the week and didn’t know that there was one here until we were walking around with our frenchie, Ninja, and a lady was like, «Go to lululemon, they love dogs!»
We stopped by and just like the lululemon stores here in the bay area, all the ladies loved him and Ninja loved them! I saw one of the ladies wearing the What the Fluff jacket and I fell in love with it. I tried it on and I was sold so I left with that. My bf also left with a Vancouver-​special jacket that he never saw available online.
The next day, it was «Boxing Day» and both our jackets were on sale. They didn’t refund us on this day, but we did get our price adjustments the following day. And I also picked up a pair of black wunder under pants that were on sale.
Thank you for making such cute clothes and being so dog-​friendly.

I had no idea Lulu offered free yoga classes and I am so glad I walked by and saw their sign. I definitely came in here while I was in Whistler for a week with my family to get my yoga fix in. It definitely did the trick after skiing for a few days.
Because it is in the middle of the village, you can expect some random people coming up to the doors and windows trying to mess with you, so make sure you stay in focus.
I brought my mat up there with me so I could do yoga in my room but they provide mats there if you are also on vaca and didn’t think to bring one.

I love lululemon stuff… I am just not so sure about the Jekyll and Hyde experiences I’ve experienced…
Totally 5* day– spent 20 minutes before my yoga class chatting about sports bra and gym top with one of the girls– got really good advice and recommendations, eventually leaving with a super fun and comfy gym top (though I’ve now decided I am defo an 8 not 10 all round, but that is just me not committing to tightness and therefore security!). Happy camper all round.
Totally 1* day–
Me: (At the pants section) «Hi! I would like to get a pair of wunder unders (**a type of very popular leggings that they sell) in size 8, preferably the brushed one in black?»
Girl doing the pants section: «So what types of pants do you want? Wide ones, tight ones (goes into splew).»
Me: «Urm, just the wunder unders are fine, you know, like these ones (pointing to the wunder unders I have on).
Girl: «So, you can see all our pants on display (blah blah blah)…»
Me: «Please, can I have a pair of these (pointing to the wunderunder model), in black in size 8»
Girl: (Still ignoring my request) «Do you see anything you want to try on?»
Me: (Am I CRAZY or speaking in pig latin?) «Yes, I am looking for a pair of wunder unders in size 8 in black. These one (pointing at the wunder unders SHE has on).
Girl: Oh ok, they are right here (pointing to the wunderunder model).
Even though that was then vindicated by my 5* experience, I would prefer to have shopped online if only I didn’t find Whistler’s postal system a tad confusing. I just hate it when people don’t bother listening to you and completely just go off on their sales spewl!
Yeah and they are expensive for what they are, and I think the quality of their product has also declined in the past years, so 3 star.
(But thanks for doing us all public service and making our butts look great!

I love this store. I’d work hard for expensive stilettos and lululemon gear. The Whistler location is fab. I walked in drooling and wanting to try on everything. It was Boxing Day. Fitting room was crazy but the staff was friendly and treated me like VIP. Maybe I had like 16 hangers in my arms! Of course I didn’t buy the ones that are on clearance rack! That would cramp my style! Anyway, I did find the brand new Resolution Pullover for size 4 in light grey color, that was released on Boxing Day. The next day I came back to the store & exchange it with the bright blue color. I think this color is only available in Vancouver/​Whistler location. I haven’t seen it in US so far. They had salmon color which is just groovy too. Bought a couple more tops, but was warned by hubby that I may go over on international luggage limit. Overall, thank you Lululemon Whistler for helping me spend my money at your store.

I’ve seen the little omega symbol on some clothing and bags, but I’ve never been into a Lululemon store (mostly because I have no idea where one exists — or what their spin on athletic clothing is). I was «introduced» to Lululemon in Whistler, while shopping around the Village with a friend (and my less-​than-​happy-​to-​be-​bag-​carrying hubby).
Loved the stuff, but not the prices. Despite the holiday sales that were going on, I was not able to justify buying anything because of the prices (I don’t care how it makes my butt look smaller while I’m doing yoga — mostly because I don’t do yoga.). I tried to fit my husband into some of the mens workout clothes (there was more to pick from, since it seemed like most of the shoppers were women), but he wasn’t a huge fan.
The clothes were definitely comfortable and high quality — and the sales people have a clear understanding of their products and are more than willing to help you find what you need. They don’t oversell, and are friendly and will approach you — even when the store is a zoo. One of my favorite things though, is that they give you a reusable shopping bag with your purchase. Way to start the movement to reduce waste!
